title.
Here’s the script:
local groupID = 17172847
game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(player)
local groupRank = player:GetRoleInGroup(groupID)
local clone = script.Rank:Clone()
clone.Parent = game.Workspace:WaitForChild(player.Name).Head
clone.Frame.Name1.Text = player.Name
clone.Frame.Rank.Text = groupRank
player.CharacterAdded:Connect(function()
local groupRank = player:GetRoleInGroup(groupID)
local clone = script.Rank:Clone()
clone.Parent = game.Workspace:WaitForChild(player.Name).Head
clone.Frame.Name1.Text = player.Name
clone.Frame.Rank.Text = groupRank
end)
end)

What are you trying to achieve? The title just says “rainbow” do you mean a rainbow gradient? Colour changing?

This should work, also pretty lag efficient
while task.wait(1/20) do
script.Parent.TextColor3 = Color3.fromHSV(tick() % 20/20, 1, 1)
end
Put this code in a script inside your rank TextLabel

Any loop isnt very efficient.

It’s updating every one 20th of a second, best method of doing this smoothly I’ve found so far as it only peaks at 0.2% activity

That’s still not very efficient, if you are Handling this on the Server with multiple Players, it will cause lag.
And no it does not wait a 20th of a Second, task.wait()
is not always accurate with its yielding when it comes to time, its faster then the Deprecated wait()
, but its still not accurate with small numbers.

Here’s a post with an example rainbow gradient:
I know that you can use UIGradients for for example frames, text label backgrounds and more.
Is there a way to use gradients instead of a normal text RGB color, or would I have to use a pre-made image for that?

Here is a method I sometimes use, you can do alot with manipulating UIGradients, definitely something to learn if you want to make your UI look 100x better.

Go into the script inside of the textlabel, and set Enabled
to false by unchecking the box. When cloning the label to the players character, set Enabled
to true if they are a rank you want to have a rainbow name tag
Could you please help me with that?

local UIGradient = Instance.new("UIGradient")
clone.Parent = game.Workspace:WaitForChild(player.Name).Head
clone.Frame.Name1.Text = player.Name
clone.Frame.Rank.Text = groupRank
end)
end)
Just edit colors of UIGradient
